zIan development hack

[Bago47]

Fixed. Searched for the 0F88F17295DB5DC9.dll file in my comp and deleted it. zIan hack is gone and so is the xTrap error.

Thanks for help.

Delete the Crossfire folder in the Z8Games directory, and then do a clean reinstall.

That won't work since the actual hack itself installs a .dll onto the local system32.

Go to computer>C>Windows>System32, it should install a file called "Gameselector.dll" - Remove that file and try launch Cross Fire. If that does not work the only way it will get fixed it to create a new user on the computer.

EDIT: NVM already solved. Don't cheat next time, thanks.

Hey,
So basically I used zIan development hack once. It was at least 1 year ago, maybe even more. Since crossfire got updated, this message started poping up:

I didn't really mind, as it didn't do any harm (I could play the game and all, only had to press "Launch the game without the hack".
Well anyways, last time I've played cf was about 3-4 weeks ago. And yesterday I wanted to play it again. So I updated it and... :

Now I always get this message and game shuts off. I tried closing every damn proccess in task manager, and it still doesn't work.

You see, as soon as zIan hack stopped working (1,2 maybe 3 years ago) I deleted all zIan files. But I was foolish enough not to uninstall it. And now I've got no idea on how to remove it, I tried searching my whole computer of files cointaining "zIan" but no luck. And I can't shut it off in the task manager as it appears as HGWC (probably injected in cf file or something?).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S.:
Somehow I couldn't spell zIan properly -> replace I with Y for the proper name.

EDIT:
Why can't I properly insert screenshots? They appear as attachments :/

Just delete everything that has to do with crossfire if not reinstall the installer and uninstall it from their last result reset
U need to put it the pic on a pic site and put in the URL to do so answers for first and second question

-Try out what @[\/]illager said, and hope it works. For example, set C:/Z8Games/CrossFire or C:/Documents and Settings/Z8Games/CrossFire or C:/Documents and Settings/(user)/Z8Games/CrossFire.
-You should take a look at the list on services button from the system configuration tool, not just startup; also check system32 folder... viruses and hack tools sets files (commonly on system32) wich can launch processes (such like z.Yan). Those processes may be seen both on the list of services from the system configuration tool at services button and/or the Task Bar. Also, those processes may show a fake name, so, behaving like a known aplication, even when that aplication is really installed (they may take the name of a Hewlett Packard printer's process, or a Nvidia graphics card's process, or any other device/program), or don't show information and set numbers and letters as name.

When I said Task bar, I meant Task Manager... sorry, my bad
